TWO ROBBERIES.
DIR. L.. N. Davis Relieved of $355
and a watch.

On Wednesday evening the drug
store of Horne h Abel, in East Los An.
geles, was robbed. One of the proprie-
tors had stepped to the front door and
stood there for a while. A customer
entered and purchased some medicine
and when the proprietor went to the
money drawer to make change be found
that it had disappeared with its con.
tents, amounting to about $50. The
till must have been taken while he was
standing at the front door, for it was
there few moments previously.
The same night the room of Drs
Davis & Davis, on Spring street, oppo-
site Court street, was entered and gold
watch and chain and 1856 in green
backs and coin were taken. Drs. Davis
had been spending the evening at
friends house and had stopped on the
way back at a cigar store. While
purchasing q cigar DIR. l.. N. Davis dis
played quantity of greenbacks,' which
he thinks were seen by the party or
parties who afterward robbed him. Be.

ner, DR.. l.. N. Davis. They both arose
and investigated, and DR.. L N. Davis
found his clothes, which he had placed
on chair at the foot of the bed, gone
and the doors between the bedroom and
the hall open. Springing up. be hastily
attired himself in another suit Of clothes
and went to the police station and on
his return he found his clothes in the
back yard and his wallet, empty at the
back of the lot. The burglars had
gained entrance to his room by the tran.
som of the office adjoining, and had un.
locked the doors, giving them free
egress. They succeeded in obtaining
DR.. L. N. Davis gold watch and chain
and 1856 in money, but they left DIR.
w. N. Davis clothes, which contained
considerable money, untouched. 1t was
evident that the party who climbed
over the transom was small, for the
space was not large enough to permit a
full grown man to pass through.

TAGGING AT ETON.
How the Young Scholars Have to Serve
Their Cruel Fag-Masters.

How the Young Scholars Have to Serve
Their Cruel Fag-Masters.
Tagging is not easy work at Eton.
Fags not only have to wait on their
fag-masters at almost all hours, to
bring them water and to look out for
their rooms, but they even have to cook
for them. Ali the boys of a house take
their dinner together, but excepting in
two or three houses where new rule
has been made, every one has his break
fast and tea in his own room. And for
these meals the poor Tags are cooks and
walters. There is even kitchen pro-
vided for their special use where they
boil water, brew tea and toast bread.
Many heartaches have there been in
those little kitchens. Fancy a young
ster just out of the home nursery, you
might say, being set to making toast,
when he knows as little about it rs he
does about Latin verses! And yet, if
it is not all right, his fastidious master
will take him to task with all the indig-
nation of disappointed hunger and then
send him off to do his work over again.
But he grows hardened by degrees to
this work. just as he does to verse-mak-
ing, and in time can joke and laugh as
he cooks. And if while he talks he for
gets his toast and lets it burn, what
matter? With little experience he
learns to scrape off the black with a
knife.-St. Nicholas.

As to Donkey Parties.

Donkey parties are the latest thing
in the way of social gathering in
Milwaukee. A large silhoutte, repre-
senting tailless donkey is cut
out OF paper or cloth, and
fastened upon the wall. To each
of the guests are given cam
brio tail and a pin. Then they are
blindfolded, one by one, placed in a
corner opposite the donkey. are
whirled three times around. and then
started on a blind search for the
donkey, upon which. if they reach it,
the tail is to ke pinned. If the guest
goes in another direction and stumbles
against wall, door, chair. or any
thing else, there he must leave the
tail. The movements of tbs blind
folded are apt to be hdicrous- The
person who makes the best effort to
place the tail upon the donkey, where
it belongs. receives present of some
kind, while the guest who makes the
most unsuccessful effort gets the
BOBBY prize.-N. Y. Sun.

USEFUL BED SOCKS.

They Should BE of Loose Texture, and
Allow Escape for Respiration.
Many persons suffer extremely from
cold feet at night. Some feel obliged
to wear stockings to bed. But there
are many and obvious reasons why this
is a poor plan, especially if the stock
ings have been worn through the day.
But pair of bed socks is great COM
fort. They are of loose texture, and so
allow escape for perspiration. They
can be slipped off easily as soon as the
feet get warm.
Materials: One-half skein each of
contrasting colors of Germantown
yarn. Medium size rubber or bone
needles.
Cast on ninety stitches and knit back
and forth garter-stitch till you have
ten ridges. Then narrow one stitch at
the beginning of each needle till you
have forty stitches, or till you think it
is small enough for the ankle. You
can change the color of the yarn at the
beginning of the narrowing if you wish;
or you can make the whole foot one
color, and the ankle another, rs you
please. In the last four or five rows
narrow once each row in the exact
middle of the strip; this shapes the
heel. To make the ankle, knit back
and forth as many times as you wish,
and finish off with several rows of knit
two and seam two, with the contrast
ing color. Bind off loosely. The ankle
can be made as high as you like. Now
lay together the edges of the flat, queer
shaped strips you have made, and sew
neatly, and you have your sock COM
plete.
They can be crocheted also. Make a
chain of the right size for the ankle.
Work into it in double crochet. and
join neatly at the back. Notice that
the knit socks begin at the sole and are
not joined till finished, but the crochet
ed ones begin at the ankle and are
joined as YOU go on. Make four rows
of double or long crochet, putting the
needle through both loops of the row
before (not through one as is done in
making slippers). Break off your
thread. and make about sixteen stitch
es directly opposite the joining place in
the back. This is for the vamp of the
sock. Crochet on this little strip eight
or nine rows. narrowing on each side
after the first four or five rows. Now
change the color of your yarn and be-
gin at the back of the ankle and GRO
chet straight around the whole for seven
or eight rows. or until the foot is large
enough. Now narrow at tip of toe and
back OF heel on last row. Turn and
join edges Of sole together. You can
crochet fancy top on the ankle with
the contrasting color in star stitch or
finish in any other Golden
Rule.
